Analysis of Smell The Magnolias



I’ve always wanted to smell the magnolias described to smell like a child’s dream, like cotton candy and toothaches like the most delicious sweet fruit you’ve ever smelled, but I’ve never been able to smell the magnolias until I found this pill a pill that made me feel good I still couldn’t smell the magnolias, but I still felt good, and it covered up the pain of not being able to smell that delightful smell. one day it was one pill the next day three until Monday five days later there was no more me I finally got to smell the magnolias, but they were not sweet, and they were not fruity they were just as bitter and cold as my thoughts.
